Shutterbug Saturday: Frog Strangler

Posted on April 13, 2019 Updated on October 4, 2023

Or, Toad Strangler or, Gully Washer… My dad was fond of the frog saying and my maternal grandfather always used the latter. All three are good descriptions of the storm that just swept through here, today. I haven’t seen this much water since Hurricane Matthew in 2016. Have mercy… ~Vic

Rain Storm Image One — I thought my chairs might float away.
The backdoor neighbor had his own mini-river.

Rain Storm Image Two — Patio at the side door looks like a mini-swimming pool.
Water from the next door neighbor’s poor drainage…

Rain Storm Image Three — The gold pick-up in the first photo…this is his backyard.
The Eno hasn’t crested, yet and, the water is at his backdoor right now.

Rain Storm Image Four — Bench at Turnip Patch Park didn’t fare well.

Rain Storm Image Five — Entrance to Gold Park underwater.
One sewer access is over-flowing.

Rain Storm Image Six — Underwater graffiti.
See my previous post on this.
Picture #2

More to come…

Shutterbug Saturday: Signs of Spring & More Artistes

Posted on March 30, 2019

Grabbed a few more graffiti shots and, enjoyed the newest and littlest Spring offerings. All photos are my personal collection. ~Vic

Graffiti Image One — Random decorations.
I can see an eye shooting out beams of light, sort of?

Graffiti Image Two — Different language?
It looks like it was drawn over a money bag.

Graffiti Image Three — Winter tree with a red heart?

Graffiti Image Four — There is pain.
There was love.
Probably not a Trump fan.

Graffiti Image Five — Anarchy, choice, voodoo and I hate walls.

Graffiti Image Six — Japanese beetle?
June bug?
Why it’s on the fence, I don’t know.

Small Flowers Image Seven — My yard is full of these wild violets.

Small Flowers Image Eight — I wish I knew what these were.
They are all over the local dog park.

Small Flowers Image Nine — The bees love them.

Small Flowers Image Ten — Narcissus near the side door.

Small Flowers Image Eleven — On the Riverwalk, hugging the sewer access.

Small Flowers Image Twelve — So cute.
So tiny.
Everywhere.
I wish I knew what they were.
